Owning a Senior Care Franchise

Many people today make up the “Sandwich Generation.” They are trying to take care of their

parents and their children at the same time.

It can be an overwhelming situation at times. This is the burgeoning challenge faced by an entire “Sandwich

Generation” of family caregivers.

Caregiving is not only challenging and often thankless work, but can be emotionally and physically

taxing. The old axiom rings especially true for the Sandwich Generation: in order to care for others,

you have to care for yourself.

• Family Caregivers need helpand support.

• They need to be aware of andunderstand the resources thatare available to them .

Studies show that an overwhelming number of senior citizens would prefer to stay in their homes versus live

in a nursing home if given a choice.

A recent study of adults ages 45 and older by AARPsuggest that wanting to remain in one's home and

one's community as one ages continue to be paramount.

For seniors, homecare means more than just health and safety, it also means living well, with dignity in the most

comfortable setting in the world - your home.

Older adults tend to have greater than average healthcare needs and are growing faster than the total population, increasing the demand for home

health services and all types of senior care.

An increasing number of families are confronted with the challenge of finding a quality care solution each and

every day.

According to a special report conducted by Franchise Business Review - “From an investment perspective

owning and operating a successful senior care franchise can be very fulfilling emotionally and

financially.”
